Rowan At Golant Reviews

Katrina
Loved our stay a nice clean cottage full of everything we needed. Was ideal having a hot tub in garden and was able to use pool whenever we needed too. There was a live band playing at the silo barn on Saturday night which was great to see. We are definitely going to return to here soon.
Lynne
Lovely cottage, enjoyed stay.
Hilary
After the hustle and bustle of travelling around the area, coming back to the farm, was a haven. Peaceful and quiet, and a great location for the dogs. The entertainment on the Friday night was very welcome after a long journey - great food. Hot tub was a luxury, and the cottage very well equipped for a self catering holiday, everything you would nRead moreeed, whatever the weather. Hide
Laura
Really enjoyed our stay. Would recommend. Loved it!
Matt
A nicely situated quiet cottage in a lovely part of the country with easy access to beaches and Eden Project (which we visited over a long-ish weekend). Having a hot tub was a nice touch. The decor could probably do with a bit of a refresh, but it is a very nice cosy place to spend a few nights. If you're there on a Friday night, the bar on site loRead moreoks amazing! Hide

Steven
Rowan cottage was really great, fully stocked kitchen, beds were really comfortable and on suite and bathroom facilities were really well appointed. The farm it is situated on is nicely remote but has good entertainment at the Silo bar, all in all an enjoyable holiday.
Paul Anthony Haw
Perfect barn conversion to a very high standard in a fantastic location for visiting this part of cornwall. Hot tub and endless pool and sauna were brilliant as was the silo bar with food and music on friday and tuesday nights. Could not reccomend highly enough

Bryony
The most incredible week staying in Rowan. The cottage was perfect (the best equipped holiday let kitchen we've ever had!) a real home from home. We loved the swimming pool and sauna even after full days at the beach! The bar silo event on our arrival day was such a great way to start our holiday. Well located for trips to Fowey, whitsand bay, bosc astle & st nectans Glen waterfall (a must visit!), local beaches 10 min drive away to par sands & polkerris (small & relaxed - great food @ sams)
Karen
Absolute little gem of a place , superb location for exploring the area.

Situated in an area of outstanding beauty with great history around every corner, friendly people around, good pub nearby, great entertainment onsite where you can enjoy the very best of local beers, Rowan cottage provided everything we needed for a wonderful holiday. Very wel equipped and with very comfy beds. We had a great time and will surely b e back!
Elizabeth
Lovely farm and cottage! The cottage was beautiful and had everything we needed. The location was excellent for exploring and the farm itself was great for amenities. We were lucky enough to stay on a Friday evening and experience live music in the Silo Bar which topped the whole experience off very nicely!
Michele
It is a handy location for walks but not really for local pub, despite being within a mile. We walked back from pub once and it is very uphill and more direct route seems to be blocked. The scenery surrounding the house was brilliant and we had really good weather and walked mainly on SW coast path/ hot tubbed every day. Ee reception ok upstairs bu t not downstairs. Quiet, restful break which was appreciated and really comfy bed!
Francia
Lovely cottage and hot tub on a quiet farm. Enjoyed visiting the Eden project and the Gribbin lighthouse. Par Sands beach and the woods around Treffry viaduct were great for the dogs. The Fisherman's arms in Golant is a must!
Gillian
Lovely cottage you had everything you needed in it & more lovely & quiet good entertainment nights & great dog friendly & good area for exploring, easy access to shops & the lovely villages in area would recommend
Rachel
Loved our stay at South Torfrey farm in Rowan, a lovely cottage perfect for the three of us and our pooch. Great location, a perfect base for visiting Fowey, we loved the pub in Golant, really friendly staff and lovely location just watch for the tide coming in. Our son loved the games room and played pool and table tennis most evenings, the dvd co llection was great too and we watched a couple of films while we were there. The hot tub in our enclosed garden was fabulous at the end of a long day!
Tracey
Lovely cottage, nice to have a little secure front garden, especially good when on holiday with dogs.
Elizabeth
Perfect location to explore Fowey and neighbouring bays. Cottage was home from home, had everything we needed for a relaxing stay for 2 adults, 2 teenagers and our dog. Bar Silo on arrival day was awesome! Really handy to be able to get hot food, drinks and free entertainment on arrival.

An absolutely and confortable cottage, lovely location closed to a lovely village of Fowey, Mevagissey, Golant, Gorran bay.

My fiance and I both needed a break from our stressful jobs.. And this holiday exceeded our expectations, the cottage is so beautiful, warm and cosy.. We would enjoy a walk in Fowey/Ready money cove, or a trip out to Eden project or Polperro.. Then return to use the pool, sauna and hot tub! The owners are very friendly and we enjoyed the live event s night on Friday night with a delicious burger! We will definitely be returning :) thank you for a great stay!
